  1. I'm running Windows Server 2016, All Servers in domain obtain IP address automatically and DNS addresses are set manual: Primary DNS 172.16.0.1 Secondary DNS 172.16.0.2 I create a 3rd DC (172.16.0.3) and promote it as Primary DC (Move all FSMO roles successfully). I want to change the primary DNS on all servers (about 50) to the new PDC 172.16.0.3 So I create a batch file with the following script: @echo off set dnsserver=172.16.0.3 set dnsserver2=172.16.0.1 for /f "tokens=1,2,3*" %%i in ('netsh interface show interface') do ( if %%i EQU Enabled ( rem echo change "%%l" : %dnsserver% netsh interface ipv4 set dnsserver name="%%l" static %dnsserver% both netsh interfa…

    Windows Server 2016 - DNS/AD problem Hi all - at one point our DC froze and we had to do a restart. It installed a lot of updates and then once it got up and running again we started experiencing problems with DNS, passwords, mapped drives etc - please refer to screenshots. Its as if the communication between the desktops and the server got out of sync somehow. Any idea what we can do please? Thank you

    Hi, I have posted my problem here: https://www.wincert.net/microsoft-windows/chromium-edge-group-policy-not-applying/ and Nic asked me to post it here. I'm planing to push out new Edge to the users in our domain but the GPO does not work. I have never had any issues with GPO before and we have used GPO for old Edge with no problem. I downloaded the new ADMX files, created the GPO and tried it on a test user, I also linked it to the test users computer OU but no luck. The test username is Edge and computer is HP125. Both the user and computer is receiving the GPO if I run gpresult . It's a realy piece of crap that Microsoft can't do anything right at the be…

    If any of you guys has Server 2019 (Standard edition), and could quickly check whether the retail key unlocks the downloads on TechBench, that would be awesome. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7 I can see from the API that the downloads are now physically there, but I don't know which key can unlock them to make them available for download. Such a Server 2019 key is crazy expensive, and I don't really want to waste such amount of money for nothing... If it does work, Server 2019 could be added to the ISO Downloader.

    Does anyone know if there is a way of slipstreaming RAID drivers onto WHS 2011? The reason I ask is I am using a cfg.ini file to install as my SSD is only 140gb (to get around the min 160gb requirement) so I don't get to the "Load Drivers" screen. I have tried adding a drivers parameter in the cfg.ini file and get an error, so the only other thing I can think of is to slipstream them in (if possible) Does anyone know if the Win Toolkit will support WHS 2011? Thanks
